I take it you don't know any children of divorced parents, then.
You can take whatever you want, but you'd be wrong. I also know plenty of people who grew up with parents who hated one another but refused to go their separate ways. That's an even more wonderful experience. But eh, no one's discussing kids here, so that's irrelevant. Teri was hardly having children while she was in that state.
I'm not trying to be morally patronizing, nor am I unhappy with any of my own relationships
Like I said, that's just my own anecdotal evidence speaking, I've no idea what your deal is. Judging from your icon as well as your comments on this thread, it seems to me you just really really like celebrity gossip. Which is fine, but that's a subject that's of absolutely no interest to me whatsoever, so it always surprises me when other people are interested.
all I am saying is that this guy is not the squeaky-clean saint he's being put forward as, and that his motives are questionable.
Again, that's fine, if that's how you feel. But it's entirely irrelevant, as he did absolutely nothing wrong from a legal standpoint, or in my own opinion, from an ethical standpoint-- sure, you can question his motives all you like, but since you can't read his mind, and you don't know any of the people in question, it's essentially a huge waste of time. The reason you're having trouble convincing anyone here otherwise is because the rest of us realize that it's absolutely none of our business, and we can never know what goes on in the heart of a total stranger.
